I got a budget of $800 for building a new computer (i'll probably be ordering the parts on black friday).
This is my first build so i'd like to know what suggestions facepunchers have. I don't to have to fit mouse, keyboard, speakers, OS, DVD/CD drive or monitor into that budget. Also i prefer intel.
I forgot to add that i'll be gaming on this (MW2, L4D2, pretty much any RTS you can think of, BIOshock 2 when it comes out, etc.)

there's nothing wrong with MSI, there's nothing wrong with a 4890 (tbh, it's more powerful than a 5770 although it lacks dx11 and eyefinity) and there's nothing wrong with a 500W psu with that build

Sorry but that's the best AM3 motherboard you can get.
4890 beats the 5770.

5770 will most likely beat the 4890 once mature drivers are released.
Asus > MSI in my opinion, also cheaper, which that difference can be used to go and get higher specs in general
